A Brooklyn man with a shovel and a dream took the snow that piled up in his back yard and did the most New York thing possible with it — developed it into valuable real estate.

Patrick Horton built an igloo big enough to sleep two people behind his Greenpoint residence and tried to rent it out Sunday on Airbnb as the city’s trendiest new boutique hotel.

“Dripping with ingenuity and alt-lifestyle aura lays this Snowpocalypse’s most desirable getaway,” he wrote on the house rental service’s website.

Horton pitched his backyard snow dome as a romantic getaway under the Airbnb listing “Boutique Winter Igloo for 2.”

“Built completely by hand all natural. Come experience this chic dome-style bungalow with Bae,” he wrote.

Horton, a freelance art director, told Brokelyn.com that he had been planning to start his self-made snow hotel long before the huge winter storm, which dumped more than two feet of snow across the city.

“We decided we were going to do this two months ago,” he told the website. “We were sitting and joking around that we should build an igloo, and then we decided we’d actually do it. We were just waiting for a snow day.”

He offered it for $200 a night and got a lot of interest. The unique lodging quickly went viral on Facebook and Reddit — with five people even asking to rent it.

But Airbnb shut down his igloo listing six hours after it went live, because the hastily made snow home allegedly wasn’t up to code.

Got shut down by @Airbnb for not meeting occupancy standards. Though they were nice enough to tell us that it looked very well constructed.

“We are happy to see that you guys are staying busy and having fun during Blizpocalypse,” the company wrote in an email. “Unfortunately, your igloo, while very well constructed, has failed to meet our occupancy standards and has been removed from search results.”

Airbnb offered Horton a $50 coupon to use when booking a real room for rent through its app and Web service.

“Be sure to pick a place with running water, electricity, and a roof that doesn’t melt,” the company added in the email.
